PG - e32342 LID - 10.7759/cureus.32342 [doi] LID - e32342 AB - Monkeypox virus (MPVX) is a double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) virus from the genus Orthopoxvirus, family Poxviridae. Many cases of MPVX infection are currently seen worldwide. Although the majority of cases reported are not severe, basic precautionary measures are key to preventing this infection from turning into a catastrophic pandemic. We report a case of a 54-year-old male with no high-risk behavior who developed a sudden uncharacteristic monkeypox virus rash while on a flight from Nigeria. CI - Copyright (c) 2022, Ashish et al.
